Looks pretty good. Did you use the grid technique?

[LilGmoney]

No I didn't

start shading at the very edge of the hood.....(left side) using a reference pic for shading

[SeCrEtMoDdEr]

no dont start shading

put up the reference pic, something doesnt look right

300zx...i dont think people draw those, maybe like one or two people drew that car here...nice to see you drawing it...lots of dot dot dots, haha

yeah, outlines take me a long time too but practice makes perfect

looks cool

reference reference reference

oh and for the shading, i usually do all the blacks first, the deep blacks like the shadow, tire, and window trim then i go from there..

i don't know about the front. maybe it should be a little longer...or something is wrong with the front. it is very good though very nice choice of car
